Most likely, all the members of your list are hidden - probably because
"Conceal the member's address" is one of the new_member_options
selected on the list's General Options page. Hidden members do not
appear in the list from the email "who" or on the web roster
(http://www.example.com/mailman/roster/LIST_NAME/>.

Presumably, you can't use the command line

bin/list_members

to get the membership list. If you have the standard web admin
interface, you can script it to get a membership list or to "unhide"
all the members. See
<http://starship.python.net/crew/jwt/mailman/#throughtheweb> for
examples.
